Orange Mint Juice / Kahlua Chiffon cake

This is the very first juice recipe in my blog. Its nothing special about the ingredients here but its really good to cure sore throat. I had a really bad bad bad sore throat last few weeks, I've tried all kinds of throat medicines, honey..etc etc. But nothing helps..:( Then it just happened when we visited my sister-in-law, she made this for me. Said its good for sore throat. Guess what?! After a glass of it, my throat feel better and it even recovered the other day..:)
Then to prove it really works, I made myself a glass last 2 days when I felt a slight pain in my throat. It works!!! And that is why I really wanted to share this juice with you..;)



You just need....2 oranges (room temperature), 3-4 petals of mint ( I used applemint), and 1 tsp of honey. Blend the oranges and mint together for juice, add in honey and mix well, and drink once ready.

And before I end this post, I'll like to share another chiffon cake with you.
I just feel like eating chiffon almost most of the time..;p Well, since I wanted to eat so much, I just check out the ingredients in my kitchen, especially eggs...heehee. Okay, there were only 6 eggs in my fridge, and its just nice for a chiffon..;p (Its meant for my chiffon)..haha!

My very own version,
6 eggs white
120g sugar
1/2 tsp cream of tartar

6 egg yolks
90g sugar
1/2 tsp Kahlua / coffee essence
2 tbsps coffee (coffee powder melted in hot water)
100ml milk
140g Self raising flour

The method is the same as the other old posts. You can refer here.



Notice there is no oil here. Yup! I avoid that. And the texture is still soft..:)


Cheers!

  12. Hello Reese good morning. About the orange drink do you blend the entire orange with its rind? Just wondering as the rind is bitter for me. Thank you. Sharon
